I’ve been thinking a lot about how we consume series lately. Does anyone else feel like the "binge-watch" model actually kills the hype for a new show? I remember when everyone would talk about an episode for a whole week, building theories and excitement together. Now, a whole season drops, you finish it in a night, and it’s basically forgotten by next Tuesday. What do you guys think? Is the weekly release schedule objectively better for the "health" of a series and its community, or are we just too impatient for that now?
